Chapter 77 [B-level technique: Sora no Tachi]!
A small round hole appeared in the center of Orochimaru's eyebrows, and his whole body turned into a pile of dirt, scattered on the ground.
The next moment.
A new Orochimaru emerged from the ground in another place, unscathed.
"Is the attack just now the same secret technique Nara-kun used to kill Arata Shimura?"
Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth, and the light in the snake's eyes became more intense.
The "ultra-long-range projectile attack" just performed by the opponent made Orochimaru subconsciously think of the water-transforming secret technique of the Oniden clan in Kirigakure Village.
To be precise.
It is a derivative ninjutsu developed based on the water-melting secret technique of the Oniden clan - the water iron cannon technique!
The difference is.
The water-iron cannon technique of the Ghost Lantern clan can only attack.
However, Nara Langui's "Pitch Black Projectile" also has the control effect of the shadow secret technique.
Orochimaru has not yet noticed the subtle difference between [Shadow Penetrating Bullet] and [Shadow Binding Bullet].
But nevertheless.
In his opinion, the overall value of the "Jet Black Projectile Technique" developed by Nara Langui is better than the "Water Iron Cannon Technique" of the Oni Lan clan!
What a genius occult ninja!
Orochimaru finally understood why the Nara clan valued Nara Gui so much that they even went to the extent of fighting the root cause.
If he were the leader of the Nara clan, he would protect this super genius like this.
Faced with Orochimaru's inquiry, Nara Langui responded very coldly.
"No comment."
Violent——
With a sharp hawk's cry, a huge eagle made of ink flew out of the forest.
Its back carries Nara Langui and pharmacist Nonou at the same time, flying high into the sky.
'The fake painting of a super beast actually has the effect of flying?'
Orochimaru looked up at the black eagle in the sky, and unexpected emotions appeared in his heart again.
'Even the roots don't know this...'
In the ninja world, the ability to fly can be described as an out-and-out "high-end ability" that only a very small number of ninjas possess.
Mastering the ability to fly basically symbolizes that the ninja has absolute initiative in combat.
Whether to fight or retreat depends entirely on the opponent's thoughts.
At this time, Nara Langui did have the plan to withdraw his troops.
He knew that the snake was difficult to kill, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to kill.
Penetrating the heart, blasting through the head, you can use various "substitute techniques" to escape the damage.
In comparison, Mr. Kakuto, who dies every time he is pierced through the heart, is simply not too honest...
Pharmacist No Naiyu controls the black eagle, constantly hovering and spinning in the sky.
Seeing this scene, Orochimaru also kept changing his position on the ground, dodging to avoid Mo Ying's shadow.
What he was afraid of was not Mo Ying, but Nara Langui who merged with Mo Ying's shadow.
When Orochimaru kept moving around, he was avoiding Nara Langui's shadow and his unpredictable "shadow bullet".
But after dodging for a long time, the opponent hesitated to attack, as if he was just teasing the prey.
Orochimaru also felt angry in his heart.
He suddenly stopped walking, summoned the Kusanagi sword, and once again used the long-distance attack method of extending the sword body and attacking suddenly.
The silvery white horse streaked across the sky again.
However, the pharmacist Nonou, who was already on guard, simply controlled the black eagle to fly, and fluttered its wings to avoid the thrust of the Kusanagi sword.
Why information about ninja abilities is important.
A large part of the reason is that "the same ninjutsu cannot be used twice on the same ninja."
Staring closely at the black eagle that is constantly circling in the sky.
Orochimaru unhappily withdrew his Kusanagi sword, made a seal gesture, and submerged his whole body under the ground. His intention to avoid the battle was very obvious.
"It seems that the other party does not intend to continue fighting with us..."
Nara Langui unfolded the [Lacquer Eye] and looked down at the earth below, but found no trace of the flow of spiritual energy.
"In that case, let's go back to the Platycodon Orphanage."
"Um!"
Pharmacist Nonoyu controlled the Black Eagle and kept lowering the flying altitude until it landed on the ground.
The matter of "defeating the legendary Sannin".
It did not bring too deep inner feelings to Nara Langui and Yakushi Nonoyu.
Pharmacist Nonoyu, who hurried back towards Platycodon Castle, seemed a little worried.
"Lan Gui, do you think the roots will just stop acting?"
"We already have a rough idea of the strength of the two of us. Danzo Shimura wants to deal with us unless he is willing to send a Jonin team.
"The current atmosphere and situation do not allow Danzo Shimura to make such a big move."
Nara Langui spoke to comfort him.
“Although I don’t know how Shimura Danzo persuaded Orochimaru, this Sannin should be the ‘strongest trump card’ that Shimura Danzo can currently play.
"Presumably in the next period of time, the small movements at the roots will completely stop."
Nara Langui was comforting the pharmacist Nonou, but in his heart he was thinking about how to deal with Shimura Danzo.
As the saying goes.
Only a thousand days to be a thief, how can a thousand days to guard against thieves?
But the problem is that Danzo Shimura is not an ordinary "little thief", but an insidious "old thief".
If Nara Langui wants to deal with Shimura Danzo, he must take a long-term approach.
'And when dealing with Shimura Danzo, we must also consider Sarutobi Hiruzen standing behind him...the latter is the real big trouble!'
Nara Langui's mind was filled with thoughts.
'Let's use the [Shadow Transformation Technique] first to explore the area of Shimura Danzo's daily activities...'
Return to the Platycodon Orphanage.
Before long, the impatient pharmacist Nonou arranged for people to track down the location and whereabouts of Oya Castle Flame.
The thin monk who hurried over took the initiative to deliver good news - the fat nun who had just disappeared unexpectedly returned to the orphanage on her own initiative!
Pharmacist Nonoyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, just come back.
"Langui, you go and rest for a while, I'll go see the nun."
Pharmacist Nonoyu warned Nara Langui and hurriedly went to check on the fat nun.
'The fat nun actually came back on her own? What happened just now was just a coincidence?'
Nara Langui looked at the back of pharmacist Nonoyu and frowned slightly.
'It always feels like it's not that simple...'
Return to the cabin.
Nara Langui called out the panel and found the B-level [Ninja Secret Scroll] he had just obtained.
"I don't know what content Orochimaru's secret volume will contain... This sly snake is an out-and-out 'master of forbidden arts'!"
With a thought in his mind, Nara Langui opened the scroll.
【Opening...】
[Contents included in this B-level ninja secret volume: Techniques]
[B-level technique: Sora no Tachi]
[Skill Description: Riding the Sword and Riding the Wind, Sword Dance of Death]
[Spell effect: By simply using the natural energy filled in the atmosphere, indirect interference can control inorganic substances rich in its own chakra, allowing it to fly freely in the air]
[Skill Evaluation: Sword Control]
‘Natural energy? Magical moves!?’
Looking at the spell information on the panel, Nara Langui's eyes widened.
‘Orochimaru really mastered senjutsu??’
…
The other side.
Orochimaru's figure reappeared in the forest. He looked up at the sky, but there was nothing in the sky.
"Did you really leave? The ability to fly is really convenient..."
Orochimaru didn't have any countermeasures against flying targets.
But if those methods are really used, it will inevitably cause too much noise and easily attract the attention of the ninjas of Platycodon City.
This is inconsistent with Orochimaru's original plan.
Orochimaru's original plan was to test Ichiban Nara's quality, try to reduce the conflict with Ino Shikacho, and at the same time obtain the corresponding "reward" from Shimura Danzo at the root.
However, the vigilance and comprehensive strength displayed by Nara Langui were somewhat beyond Orochimaru's expectations.
"Nara-kun, I am really becoming more and more curious about you..."
Taking out a scroll from his ninja tool bag, Orochimaru wrote furiously, writing a lot of messages on it.
After he finished writing and stopped writing, he put his thumb into his mouth, bit the tip of his finger lightly, used his psychic technique and summoned a small snake.
"Go find Tsunade's location and give her this scroll..."
Bang!
The little snake picked up the scroll and disappeared as a puff of smoke rose.
The next moment, Orochimaru also disappeared.
After walking for a while.
Orochimaru returned to the village from outside Platycodon Castle and came to a dark area, which was the base of the roots.
"You're back?"
After receiving the report from his subordinates, Shimura Danzo rushed over immediately. He looked at Orochimaru, who was alone and empty-handed, and asked coldly.
"Why did you come back alone? Mission accomplished?"
"I'm not your subordinate, Elder Shimura. Don't talk to me in this tone."
Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth gently.
"Our relationship now is just an equal transaction..."
A cold light flashed in Shimura Danzo's eyes, but he knew the strength and methods of the man in front of him, so he still forcibly held back his displeasure.
"Since it's a transaction, what about the 'goods' you brought?"
"goods?"
Orochimaru curled his lips.
“What was our original deal?
"In exchange for 'that thing', you asked me to test the quality of pharmacist Nonou and Nara Langui.
"If there is an opportunity, deal with the former secretly and bring the latter back to its roots.
"But unfortunately, the strength level of the two of them exceeded my expectations."
Danzo Shimura's voice was filled with sarcasm, "Can't the three great ninjas solve the big one and the small one?"
"There is something wrong with your intelligence, Elder Shimura."
Orochimaru said coldly.
"Nara's capture of Gui involves not only the Nara clan, but also Tsunade.
"Before you asked me to take action, you never said that Nara Langui was a subordinate of Tsunade!"
Danzo Shimura was stunned, "How is that possible..."
"What's there to hide about something like this?"
Orochimaru's vertical pupils stared at Shimura Danzo faintly.
"Elder Shimura, shouldn't you settle your 'remuneration' now?
"Cells of the Ninja God!"
Let’s talk about [Sora no Tachi].
The exact name is [Kusanagi Sword, Sora no Taito].
[Sora no Tachi] appears at the end of Chapter 123.
Orochimaru manipulated the [Kusanagi Sword] out of thin air and penetrated Sarutobi Hiruzen's body from behind.
According to the description in "The Book of Fighting", this is a B-level medium and short-range attack ninjutsu, which means that the use distance is limited to 10 meters.
The specific principle was not mentioned, only that it was a technique unique to Orochimaru.
Kishimoto draws comics, and some of his ninjutsu are probably thought up at the drop of a hat.
The most typical example is Uchiha Itachi who always has a trump card...
However, considering the rationality of fan creation, Ashin had to fill in the gaps in the original work on his own.
For example, [Sora no Tachi].
Although in the formula book, Orochimaru is described as a "full attribute ninja".
However, Orochimaru should not be a "magnetic escape ninja"...
Therefore, the inference that the "Kusanagi Sword" is controlled through "Magnetic Release" to achieve a similar effect to sword control was first ruled out.
In addition, Ashin searched for Orochimaru's personal abilities, including Orochima Kabuto's abilities.
I discovered a ninjutsu that seems to have something to do with [Sora no Tachi]...
The so-called [Inorganic Reincarnation] is the magic of manipulating inorganic objects through natural energy.
In addition, in Chapter 297 of the manga, Orochimaru fought against Sai, and he also transformed the Kusanagi sword into a snake and manipulated it to crawl back to him...
Referring to the above two points of information, Ashin regarded [Sora no Tachi] as a simple technique for manipulating natural energy.
Although this shows from the side that Orochimaru knows senjutsu...
